1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nason.

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 2: Damnitely Jonesy demand of arms to the pub test rsvping

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 2: no to a wedding if you can't afford it?

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: Does this pass the pub test?

5
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 3: Well, Weddings are getting more and more expensive. A typical

6
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 3: guest apparently spends on average six hundred and eleven dollars

7
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,239
Speaker 3: for a gift, for clothing for yourself, for maybe travel

8
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 3: and accommodation. And if you're going to a variet a

9
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 3: number of those throughout the year, that's a big chunk

10
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 3: of money.

11
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 4: Sure, and you're pretty popular, so people who would expect

12
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 4: you to put out a big gift.

13
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 3: You're talking about your son's wedding coming up.

14
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, Oh, you're just saying, we've already put

15
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 4: in the We've got the special agents showing up there,

16
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 4: We've got the dog squad there.

17
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: You know, it's like when the present Prime Minister comes.

18
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 3: It's going to happen. I saw an article on the

19
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 3: Washington Post that said a wedding invitation is not a subpoena.

20
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,559
Speaker 3: You are allowed to say no if you can't afford it.

21
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 3: But what a dilemma that would be. RSVP no to

22
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 3: a wedding if you can't afford it, does it pass

23
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 3: the pub test?

24
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 5: I think it does pass the pub test. I think

25
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 5: a parts from anything else that the people who are

26
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 5: actually getting married have so much expense that they're probably happy.

27
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 6: If you so know, it does have the club here,

28
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 6: and then I think it makes be honest to make

29
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 6: your friends and so why they're not coming.

30
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 7: Yes, it does. I got married overseas. Most of my

31
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 7: families didn't come to my wedding because they sudn't afford it,

32
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 7: and I was perfectly okay with that. I walked into

33
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 7: the church and my husband's side of the church was

34
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 7: absolutely full because we got married where his family were,

35
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 7: and my side of the church was pretty much empty.

36
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 7: If you're realistic about weddings and some people aren't going

37
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 7: to come for the money, and just appreciate the fact

38
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 7: that people are happy for you, then that's all good.

39
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,839
Speaker 1: So your family's not there, what's
